Billy Goes Hunting - A book Review
Mathew Butler understands hunting and Mathew Butler understands children. Mathew has put together something that is going to bring children into conservation and Billy Goes Hunting is a great book that should do just that. This book is very well written and shares with it the land ethic and concern for animals that all hunters have.
This is a book that i was excited to share with my kids. The story is very well written and in a simple language that kids of all ages are going to understand. The pictures and graphics are very well done and this book will be one of those that after your children grow up and trade up to bigger and bigger books, this is one that is going to remain on the shelf as a cherished treasure.
We need more writers like Matt in our world who are willing to take chances and do something great for our youth. Matthew self published this book and took giant risks in order to get this message out there in front of our youth. His willingness to take these chances stems from his love of hunting, wildlife and the outdoors. Matt is a father, US Army Green Beret and RANGER, occasional Bull Rider, and avid bow hunter. Mathew likes to write and runs a search engine in the outdoor industry.
Karah Force did the illustration for this book and I can assure you all that we will be seeing her work in the future. Karah Force is a BFA student at Saginaw Valley State University. She loves all sports and has a deep respect for hunting and the historic significance and balance it has brought to our environment.
This book has a incredibly reasonable price of $9.95 and I urge you to order it for the children in your life. If our world in the outdoors is to continue, if hunting is to continue, if conservation and habitat is going to be protected we must enlist the future generations in our passions for the outdoors and hunting. What better way to begin teaching them the conservation ethic that is the cornerstone of hunting? GO BUY THIS BOOK.
